Making Comparison Between FAT 32 & NTFS File System?
Jan 6, 2007Hope I'm in the right category. I'm using an Acer Intel Celeron D, Win XP (Home Edition) and my file system is FAT 32. I've heard that NTFS is superior and I am thinking of converting it. I understand that once converted, it is irrevisible. Should I convert it to NTFS and in what way is it better than FAT 32.

CHKDSK Changes File Extension
May 1, 2009So chkdsk ran on my camera's memory card and now all my .JPG pictures now have .CHK as the file extension. If I manually change .CHK back to .JPG, my pictures are back to normal. The problem is is that I now have about 1,200 .CHK files to change back to .JPG. Is there a program that will mass edit file extensions for me?

"The File Or Directory C:WINDOWSPrefetchMCUIMGR.exe-0E667E1B.pf Is Corrupt And Unreadable. Please Run The Chkdsk Utility. !!! Error
Nov 21, 2007I have a Pentium 4, Windows XP Home Edition and this problem is driving me mad. My pc says dskchkr.exe - application error. When I try to run diskchecker it says "it is unable to run in autofix mode because volume c: is in use by another application" and asks if i want to schedule it to run on startup. It will not run on startup. I also have had this message onscreen "The file or directory c:WINDOWSPrefetchMCUIMGR.exe-0E667E1B.pf is corrupt and unreadable. Please run the chkdsk utility. !!!
I have taken Macafee off my pc (or I HOPE so), and now I have NO diskchecker on AT ALL. I think I have some programs on which I thought I had removed but I cant get rid of them all without paying. Im losing my mind !!!!

Jun 10, 2006want to know if anyone knows how to make a shortcut to a file without it being named "shortcut to..."Other than renaming it and removing the "Shortcut to" bit, is there some way to do this? The reason I need to know is because I have 600 files spread out in many different folders, on several different hard drives and I want to make shortcuts to them and place the shortcuts into 1 folder. I don't fancy renaming 600 files just to remove the "Shortcut To" at the beginning of each filename.

View 7 Replies View RelatedMaking My Account Un-private?
Jan 2, 2007Ok, heres the lowdown. EDIT: I run Windows XP SP2!
I share my music on my home network, it was working fine all the computers/laptops (we have about 3) could access my music collection and play it (only my 'My Music' folder was shared, not the whole drive).
About a week ago i had to put my pc user account passworded since i had alot of information about xmas prezzys on there, and i really didnt want my family finding it since they use my pc once in a while (was just being safe). I remeber when i set the password, it said 'do you want to make this account private, other people wont be able to see your files on it) that sounded like a good idea, so i clicked yes.
Now after a few days after christmas my sister wanted to access my music again, so i took the password off. But a problem occured, the laptop or any other pc's couldnt access my music. It apears on Network places but they cant open it or play the files. I go to the shared options and the problem is, is that the 'Private' box is checked. Of course being computers wanting to make it soo hard for you, it was greyed out so i couldnt uncheck it. I click the 'cannot make this public because another folder is private' or somthing. I click on that and it brings me to my user file, for me it is called 'Owner'. Im not sharing my entire drive so i dont want to make this shared, but making it public doesnt matter since im not sharing it. But alas 'Make this folder private' is also greyed out.
Making My Computer Run Faster
Sep 25, 2008I have an old computer that's running windows xp, and I want to know what I can delete from my add remove to make things run faster. I use disk cleanup and defrag often, as well as a free registry cleaner every now and again (which seems to pick up the same problems every time, i think mostly because error files are with programs that came preinstalled on my computer that are long gone, if anyone knows how to get rid of those let me know). I'm running on only 512 mb of memory. How do I view other specs? I can also provide a list of the things in add remove if you like so you guys can tell me what's unnessesary.
